Scientific paper

Rocket measurements of the D-region electron density were conducted at polar (80 deg N, 58 deg E), middle (48 deg N, 44 deg E), and equatorial (8 deg N, 76 deg E) latitudes during the period Mar. 14 to Apr. 11, 1979. An analysis of the electron density profiles at these different latitudes shows that there is no geomagnetic control of the degree of ionization of the equatorial ionosphere, and that at middle and polar latitudes the basic variation of electron density corresponds to the maximum phase of the geomagnetic disturbances. An analysis of height profiles of electron density led to the assumption that during this period there occurred composition variations at a height of 80 km at all latitudes considered; these variations were reflected in a decrease of the upper boundary of propagation of ion bunches.
